Thinking about getting these to make a zombie army with the new chaos codex. I don't expect much modeling wise. What I do want to know is: are they same size or slightly smaller than a guardsman (zombies might shrink a bit as they loose water weight and such) ? $10 for 100 just seems like a great way to get a bulk force. Anyone have a picture they can post up? I am not worried about hacking them up and using greenstuff to individualize them or make them a bit bigger. Anyone got them?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/486884/4943270.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/486884/4943270.page GMT Bag of zombies (100 for $10) http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/486884/4943275.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/486884/4943275.page GMT Re:Bag of zombies (100 for $10) GW base would add a couple mm.

If not then I would go with manic zombies

http://www.manticgames.com/Shop-Home/Kings-of-War/Undead/Army-Deals/Product/Undead-Zombie-Horde-60-Figures.html

$60 for 60 zombies

Or you can buy them on ebay for less... which is what I did.

They're less possable than the GW ones and come with square bases. But personally I think they look great, they don't have fantasy bits on them like the GW ones and look like a proper undead horde.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/486884/4943358.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/486884/4943358.page GMT Bag of zombies (100 for $10)

Exactly It's not GW so at best you'd be wanting to use a 3rd part product in a GW game. Most tournies disallow them.
I'd prolly buy the Fantasy ones, if I wanted them.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/486884/4943359.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/486884/4943359.page GMT Bag of zombies (100 for $10) 40k ... i think they fail. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/486884/4943438.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/486884/4943438.page GMT Re:Bag of zombies (100 for $10)

The only use case I could think of would be bodies on the bases of CSMs, since then the tinier size would look good compared to the power armor.

A couple of images that might help with the size:


Still, for $10 what's the harm? ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/486884/4948899.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/486884/4948899.page GMT Re:Bag of zombies (100 for $10) http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/486884/4949708.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/486884/4949708.page GMT Bag of zombies (100 for $10) http://www.waylandgames.co.uk/mantic-games/warpath/the-corporation/z-corps/prod_18570.html

At my local GW store, as long as you are playing a GW game, you can use what whatever models you want.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/486884/4952331.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/486884/4952331.page GMT Bag of zombies (100 for $10)

IIRC, Mantic models are 28mm, but in general can look slightly off next to GW models (I'm told this is because Mantic models have more realistic proportions compared to GW)

Honestly, I'd say you're probably fine aesthetically, no one is going to be looking THAT closely.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/486884/4952399.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/486884/4952399.page GMT Re:Bag of zombies (100 for $10)
I did however buy a box of Mantic Ghouls and another of their zombies. Yes they do have more realistic proportions, but they're (intentionally) the same height as GW models. Mine are plaque servitors (cut down marine back packs, shortened chainswords replacing an arm, and Pig Iron Kolony Ferals heads).
